I'm actually making my first mf sorc now that the ladder has reset, and everyone I've asked has said that for mf you should go with bliz. I'm hoping I havn't screwed it up too much doing that, because now I'm going for FO! Thanks a lot for the info, this is great.

Blizz is an acquired taste. I dont like it and prefer FO over blizz. With FO, i can have a secondary spell and not be crippled with it.

Hi ok i have read every page. I got that you do not syn the FO but as for HYDRA do you syn for that? or just max hydra and Fire mastery. then what ? Do you ES at all?? if you could please clarify that'd be great thanks!

how many + all skills do you have? and also could u tell us your equipment? and resistances in hell?

tals 3 piece + NW + Fathom + facets in NM abd Fathom + spirit + MF gloves and boots + anni + torch + 3 cold skillers.

damage was around 750 a shard. resists were really crappy in hell. INorder to rush peeps through hell i had to switch back to full tals for survivability.

with full tals what are ur resistances? and does u damage is reliable? Also what was the order u maxed ur skills?

Hydra part of the build:

20 Hydra, 20 FM, 20 FB, ~10 Fire bolt @lvl 90. Yeah. any spares in Hydra synergies.

You might want to swap some points from FM to Firebolt to beef up the fireball a little more.

Absolutely no points in the Light tree except Static, TK and teleport. 1pt each.

full tals the resists were fine, i felt safe everywhere. damage dropped from 750 a shard to 530 a shard, not to mention the drop in enemy cold resistance. Does not matter how you max your skills. You primarily use Fireball until clvl30. THen its FO all the way through NM and hydra ocasionally.

Dont u think fireball is stronger than hydra with the sinergies? Also do u put only 1 point in fire mastery? and did u max cold mastery or not?(what do u think it is a good skill in it to have considering the + skills with equipment)

fireball is better than hydra, but the question was about the FOHydra sorc not the FOFireball sorc.
